### Display As Icon

The Display As Icon check box (Insert | Report Command | External Object) enables you to display the imbedded object as an icon instead of displaying the information outright. Once you double-click on the icon within the Edit window, it will then activate.

Suppose you place a word document in the Edit window and select the Display As Icon check box. The word document appears as an icon. However, if you double-click on the icon, the imbedded application opens and displays the information contained in the word document.
